Off-campus Research Opportunities
For students interested in paid summer off-campus research opportunities, there are many opportunities available (see below). Please take note of the deadlines, as most places tend to have deadlines between January 2—February 15 or so. Off-campus research programs typically prefer sophomore and junior-level students, though some opportunities are available for freshman students as well.
Below are lists of places to look for if you are interested in summer undergraduate research. Most undergraduate research opportunities are paid opportunities to do research anywhere from 8-10 weeks and a student can be paid ~$5000-$6000 for the 10-weeks. Typically, applications also require 2 recommendation letters from your professors. The final weeks of the fall semester are a good time to explore opportunities and line up recommendation letters from professors before Christmas break. All the materials including recommendation letters must be submitted by the posted deadline.
The drop-down menus below contains lists of research opportunities. See the main research opportunities page for guidance and advice for applying.
